IBM Open Power

IBM Open Power

OpenPower was the name of a range of servers in the System p line from IBM. They featured IBM's POWER5 CPUs and run only 64-bit versions of Linux. IBM's own UNIX variant, AIX is not supported since the OpenPower servers are not licensed for this operating system.

There were two models available, with a variety of configurations.

Before 2005, OpenPower belonged to the eServer product line. These models have been rolled back into the current IBM System p product portfolio.

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or power:

    Let us presently go sit in council,
    How covert matters may be best disclosed
    And open perils surest answered.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    [The Republican Party] consists of those who, believing in the doctrine that mankind are capable of governing themselves and hating hereditary power as an insult to the reason and an outrage to the rights of men, are naturally offended at every public measure that does not appeal to the understanding and to the general interest of the community.
    James Madison (1751–1836)
